The Delhi University Tuesday held its first Open Day for postgraduate students, to make them familiar with the admission process. PG registrations began on July 26, and will go on till August 21.
University authorities said they had received 4,500 visitors within 15 minutes on the DU admission website Monday, when it went live. The admission process is being held completely online for the second year in a row.
At the virtual Open Day livestream on Facebook, Dean Admissions Pinki Sharma said that while many details in the registration form would be allowed to be modified, some would not.
“Once the form has been submitted, no applicant will be allowed to change their gender, category (caste) and bank details on the form. Please keep this in mind before you submit your forms,” she said.
She also said “non-compliance” with documents required for admission could lead to admissions being cancelled. “If documents are found fake, admission can be cancelled at any stage. Legal action can also be taken against those candidates,” said Sharma.
She said students can sit for entrance tests even if their results were awaited. “But your result should be declared at least four working days before the last day of admission… Otherwise your provisional admission will be cancelled,” she said.
Sharma also said caste certificates “should be submitted at the time of admission,” even if they are not available during the time of registration.
Registrar Vikas Gupta warned students against using cyber cafes for fee payment, saying there have been cases of financial fraud in the past. He also assured that entrance tests would be safe.
